Are spiritual gifts just an optional add-on, or are they essential to the gospel's work in the world? In this episode, we dig deep into Scripture to explore how the life, death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus not only purchases our salvation but also secures the Holy Spirit's gifts for the church.
We’ll navigate the often-contentious debate between Charismatics and Cessationists, examining how both sides can sometimes miss the full picture. We’ll address the Charismatic tendency to detach the gifts from the core message of the gospel, and the Cessationist impulse to preach a “gospel” that sidelines the very gifts Christ gave to His people. Anchored in biblical theology, we’ll consider whether a gospel without the gifts is really the whole gospel at all.
